> Queso vs Cheese
Work debate
If you see a menu that has both "Chips & Queso" and "Chips & Cheese" on it. Regardless of translations, what do you think these items will be if you order them?
"Chips & Queso" = Chips & Cheese with chilis+tomatoes+peppers or similiar combo. "Chips & Cheese" = Chips & some type of plain cheese (either melted or shredded) [ 10 ] ** [100.00%]
"Chips & Queso" = Chips & some type of plain cheese (either melted or shredded), "Chips & Cheese" = Chips & some type of plain cheese (either melted or shredded) [ 0 ] ** [0.00%]

So basically, this guy was trying to tell me someone was a dumbass for having both "Chips & Queso" and "Chips & Cheese" on the menu at a concession stand. While yes, the literal translation of "Queso" in spanish is "cheese", it is pretty easy to figure out what was the stand meant. At least I thought so... but this guy likes to argue even more than I do (no, really, he does, I'm not joking). Just thought I'd present it to you guys since he always argues with me about stupid shit.

I just wonder if the whole queso including all that stuff in it is an Americanized term and they actually say more in Mexico when it is a combined cheese. Either way, in El Paso they call it queso. Other times, they say queso con carne... "cheese with meat" and other stuff. The guy is a moron

Or maybe queso is actually cheese in Spanish.

But queso in this way with the mixture and such is pretty americanized. But queso blanco melted with a type of meat is pretty popular
